With an emphasis on stylish simplicity, the guest cottages are authentic and rural yet contemporary in character.
With privileged access to the farm, guests staying in the cottages will be able to savour the best of farm living. Join a farm tour or explore the estate on foot, following trails that take you through orchards and mountain fynbos. There are mountain biking routes, walking paths, caves to explore, wine tasting, cellar tours, swimming in the dams and plenty of opportunities to sit, read, relax and generally take in the goodness of life.
Dining options include eating at The Werf Restaurant, The Deli, Rhone Homestead or picnic area. You can have breakfast or braai baskets brought to your cottage; or pick up some fresh farm produce at our Farmshop and Butchery and prepare in your cottage.
Guest accommodation ranging from the historical Herbert Baker designed Rhodes Cottage, to beautifully restored farm cottages. All cottages have a full kitchen (kitchenette in the smaller cottages) and are serviced daily. Ideal for couples, families and groups of friends.
